How Can I Simulate Induced EMF in a Coil Using Ansys Maxwell?

AI Thread Summary
To simulate induced EMF in a coil using Ansys Maxwell, model the coil as a conductor with a specified number of turns and adjust its radius and position relative to a current-carrying conductor. Conduct a parametric study to analyze how varying the number of turns and coil radius affects induced EMF. Utilizing the "Coupled Magnetic and Electric Field" analysis type will enhance the accuracy of your simulation. This approach will provide insights for optimizing coil design for maximum induced EMF. Engaging with these methods will facilitate a better understanding of the electromagnetic interactions at play.

How to model the induced EMF in a coil in Ansys Maxwell
Hi guys,
I'm new to this forum. I'd like to know how I could perform a simulation to find the induced EMF in a coil placed closer to a current-carrying conductor. I'm not sure how I should model the coil. I tried modelling it as a solenoid but the solenoid exceeds my required length when I enter the number of turns. On the other hand I'd like to know the effect of radius change when the number of turns are increased so that the coil is wound on each other. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

To find the induced EMF in a coil placed near a current-carrying conductor, you can use the Ansys Maxwell software. First, you will need to model the coil as a conductor with a specific number of turns. You can then specify the radius of the coil and its position relative to the current-carrying conductor.

To better understand the effect of changing the number of turns and the radius of the coil, you can perform a parametric study in Ansys Maxwell. This will allow you to vary these parameters and observe the resulting induced EMF in the coil. You can also use the results of this study to optimize the design of your coil for maximum induced EMF.

Additionally, you can also use the "Coupled Magnetic and Electric Field" analysis type in Ansys Maxwell to accurately simulate the interaction between the coil and the current-carrying conductor. This will give you a more comprehensive understanding of the induced EMF in the coil.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any further questions. Good luck with your simulation!
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
